Excerpt from The Disposal of Household Wastes The author's book on "House Drainage and Sanitary Plumbing" published in 1882, in this Science Series, did not include a discussion of the all-important question of how to dispose of the waste matters of the household in the safest, least disagreeable, most efficient and most economical manner, but it was promised by him that a future volume would be devoted to the "Disposal of Household Wastes." The manuscript for this volume was prepared in the spring of 1886. Portions of it appeared, as a series of articles, in the Chicago Inland Architect, and were reprinted in the twelfth annual Report of the State Board of Health of Rhode Island. Some circumstances over which the author had no control and the various duties of a busy professional life prevented the completion of the manuscript for publication in book form.
